Liars have already taken a pretty mysterious path in dropping hints about their new album, having started a site showing their tattoos that gave hints about their sixth full length. Or something like that, I think it was a bit too random for me to understand.
Anyway, today we have some (but not all) concrete information about the new album. We don’t know what it’s called or what the album cover looks like, or how many tracks or how long. But we know that we will get to experience it when Mute Records releases it on June 5th.
In terms of the recording and the sound of the as-yet-untitled album, it appareantly “saw the band working more collaboratively than on previous recordings, and began when Angus Andrew and Aaron Hemphill moved into an isolated cabin in the mountains to begin writing.” The result “is hard to shake, tough to pin down, and impossible to get out of one’s head even after an initial listen. Simultaneously the most accessible and most challenging release from these iconoclasts, it is both a summation of Liars’ work up to now, and a complete break from anything you’d ever heard the band do previously.”
Stay tuned for more info.
